Figure 2

Phylogenetic relationships between representatives from all classified lyssaviruses and novel Gannoruwa bat lyssavirus (GBLV) on the basis of complete genome sequences. All 4 GBLV sequences form a monophyletic clade and are >99.9% identical across the genome; therefore, only 1 sequence (in bold) is shown. Relationships are shown as an unrooted phylogram, which was constructed by using the maximum-likelihood method and a general time reversible plus gamma distribution plus proportion of invari

Figure 2. Phylogenetic relationships between representatives from all classified lyssaviruses and novel Gannoruwa bat lyssavirus (GBLV) on the basis of complete genome sequences. All 4 GBLV sequences form a monophyletic clade and are >99.9% identical across the genome; therefore, only 1 sequence (in bold) is shown. Relationships are shown as an unrooted phylogram, which was constructed by using the maximum-likelihood method and a general time reversible plus gamma distribution plus proportion of invariable sites model, and are identified by using the model test implemented in MEGA6 (http://www.megasoftware.net). Bootstrap values ≥70 (1,000 replicates) are indicated next to branches; sequences are listed with GenBank accession numbers. RABV, rabies virus; ABLV, Australian bat lyssavirus; ARAV, Aravan virus; BBLV, Bokeloh bat lyssavirus; KHUV, Khujand virus; EBLV, European bat lyssavirus; IRKV, Irkut virus; DUVV, Duvenhage virus; SHIBV, Shimoni bat virus; MOKV, Mokola virus; LBV, Lagos bat virus; WCBV, West Caucasian bat virus; IKOV, Ikoma lyssavirus. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
